Chilmark

In 1671, Chilmark became the location for the first and only
manorial grant in all of New England and Thomas and Mathew Mayhew, the
first Lords of the Manor.

Chilmark is characterized by
meandering stone walls which were built hundreds of years ago by the
first settlers. They define the undulating hills, while confining sheep
and cattle. The trees are craggier than they are at other parts of the
Island, and get their shape because of high winds and brisk salt air.
Even inland you can hear the surf. There are also many ponds, circled
with marsh grass and wildflowers.

Coveted for its seclusion,
Chilmark has a small store a library, a town hall (all at Beetlebung
Corner) and nearby, a post office. Gentle and serene, Chilmark embodies
refined country living.
